Harlan Ellison Comic Book Bibliography, Version 3.1, 6/95

This is meant to be an attempt at compiling Comic Book material
either written by or adapted from the work of Harlan Ellison, as well
as other Comic Book related Ellison-paraphernalia. This is a
working document, as you can see it is already version 3.1, that has
been in existence for over a year now. It is incomplete, and in some
cases I have not actually physically confirmed details of an item. If
you have any questions, comments, corrections or additions please
do not hesitate to contact me. Also, let me know if you download
this, reprint it elsewhere, or anything. I would be quite interested in
anything you have to say about it.

Special Thanks to John Dennett and John Leavitt for hosting this list at
their Web Sites. It can be found at the Speculative Fiction Clearing
House (http://www.steampunk.com/sfch/) and the
Dark Horse Comics Web Page (http://www.teleport.com/~dhc/) (Will be

Once again, any corrections or additions can be mailed to me, if you
want.

This Bibliography is dedicated to my Father, John Day, who grew up
in Painseville, OH (Ellison's home town), escaped it (Like Ellison),
and turned me on to his writings. Now, thanks to Dark Horse and these
other publishers, I have another way to connect back to him.
